Italy in 1966 was still shaping the look and sound of high-performance road and race cars, with Ferrari at the center of attention. From street-legal grand tourers to competition-focused prototypes, that year reflected both continuity and technical experimentation across the marque’s lineup.
There are 12 1966 Ferrari Models, ranging from 250 LM to 500 Superfast, and the list below shows each car with data organized as columns: Body type,Engine (L),Production (units). That structure makes it easy to compare configurations, displacement and how many were built—details you’ll find below.
What makes the 1966 Ferrari models distinct compared with earlier or later years?
1966 models show a mix of refinement and race-driven changes: several cars carried evolutions of V12 and V8 engines, while prototypes like the 250 LM emphasized lightweight construction and competition specs; at the same time grand tourers such as the 500 Superfast kept luxury and coachbuilt styling, reflecting Ferrari’s dual road-and-track focus that year.
Which 1966 Ferraris are rarest or most sought after today?
Rarity often follows low production and racing pedigree—limited-run models and competition-focused cars (for example the 250 LM) command the most collector interest, while higher-production grand tourers are less scarce; provenance and documented racing history also heavily influence current market value.

Images and Descriptions
275 GTB
Classic 3.3L V12 berlinetta built by Ferrari in the mid‑1960s; many 275 GTB chassis were manufactured and sold in 1966. Noted for elegant Pininfarina coachwork and strong road and occasional race use by privateers and factory-prepared examples.
275 GTS
The 275 GTS convertible paired the same 3.3L V12 with open‑top coachwork from Pininfarina. Production continued into 1966, and these roadsters were popular with wealthy buyers, blending grand‑touring comfort with Ferrari performance and style.
275 GTB/4
The 275 GTB/4 (DOHC) debuted mid‑1960s with improved breathing and a six‑carburation setup; early chassis were completed and sold in 1966. It’s prized for sharper performance, alloy coachwork on many cars, and its significance as a DOHC street Ferrari.
275 GTB/C (Competizione)
Competition‑prepared versions of the 275 GTB were campaigned by factories and private teams during 1966 in GT races. These lightweight, race‑spec cars had stripped coachwork and upgraded suspension and brakes for international endurance events.
330 GT 2+2
Ferrari’s larger 4.0L 2+2 grand tourer was in showrooms and customer hands in 1966. Known for a more comfortable, luxurious cabin and touring focus, the 330 GT 2+2 was a popular high‑end Ferrari for long‑distance road use.
330 GTC
Introduced for 1966, the 330 GTC combined a compact two‑door coupe body with a 4.0L V12—offering refined road manners and good performance. Many early GTC chassis were built and delivered in 1966, making it a key model that year.
330 GTS
The 330 GTS roadster arrived alongside the GTC in 1966, giving customers open‑top V12 motoring. Built in limited numbers, several GTS examples were sold in 1966 and quickly became sought after for their balanced performance and elegant Pininfarina lines.
365 California Spyder
A very exclusive Pininfarina‑bodied 4.4L V12 spider introduced in 1966 as a successor to earlier Californias. With only a handful produced, the 365 California Spyder is noted for rarity, bespoke appointments and wealthy clientele deliveries around 1966.
312 F1
Ferrari’s new 3.0L Formula 1 challenger for the 1966 regulations appeared that year, with several factory and works‑supported chassis running in Grand Prix events. The 312 marked Ferrari’s shift to the 3.0L V12 F1 era.
330 P3
The 330 P3 sports‑prototype was Ferrari’s factory endurance car in 1966, campaigned at international events. Built in very small numbers, P3 chassis raced in 1966 with high‑revving V12 power and were pivotal in Ferrari’s prototype program.
250 LM
Although built earlier, many 250 LM chassis were still raced or privately campaigned in 1966 endurance events and national series, tying the model to that year’s race entries. The mid‑engine V12 coupe has strong historic racing credentials.
500 Superfast
The extravagant 5.0L Superfast coupés, bodied by Pininfarina, saw customer deliveries through the mid‑1960s and some final cars were sold in 1966. These handbuilt grand tourers are notable for opulent interiors and powerful V12 performance.
